Abstract:
One of the characteristics and advantages of Chinese medicine is holism,which emphasizes harmony of human and nature.It compares the physiological and pathological change of human body with the natural normal or unmoral change by using thinking of analogy by classification,inferring the internal essence according to external synptoms and signs.And it intends to reveal body black-box,and holds physiological and pathological change from macroscopic level,but there are some fuzziness and ambiguity.With the development of morden science on the microscopic fields,some breakthroughs and theoretical systems are established.As the same,Chinese medicine holism must be micro-adjusted and establish its own micro-holism theory,which will be benefit for itself.
